Bai Liu is still in the game. Although these people have signed the contract, they still have to wait for Bai Liu to come out before they can conduct soul transactions. In other words, Bai Liu first split up the Scavenger Guild and then waited for these people to get the things before conducting subsequent transactions.
Seeing these guild members excitedly signing contracts with Mu Ke one by one, Mu Sicheng, who was standing by and watching, frowned. He felt that something was wrong. He had a familiar feeling of being cheated...
But if you ask him to explain it specifically, he can't say it.
...At first glance, it seems that these members have indeed taken advantage of Bai Liu. After all, they have obtained the management rights of the guild before giving him the soul. It would be a waste not to take advantage of such an advantage, which is a huge profit without any investment!
But the fact that Bai Liu was taken advantage of in advance was something that Mu Sicheng found unbelievable.
After Mu Ke distributed the documents, Mu Sicheng approached him stealthily and whispered in his ear, "…What on earth are you up to? You actually gave the guild to these people first. Bai Liu is not the kind of conscientious seller who ships first and collects money later."
According to the usual practice of Bai Liu, the black-hearted businessman, he usually collects the money first and then ships the goods, and he will not return the goods if they are not the same as ordered.
Mu Ke kept a polite and reserved smile on his face, tilted his head back slightly, and kept a distance from Mu Sicheng who came over. He glanced at Mu Sicheng with his peripheral vision and asked in a neutral tone: "...What do you think is the most valuable thing in this low-level guild?"
Mu Sicheng was stunned by Mu Ke's question.
What is the most valuable thing in this guild?
...High-level items in the item library, top-secret information in the database, high guild savings points, and well-organized references for clearing various dungeons - these are the things that regular guilds use to attract players to join, but this scavenger guild has none of them.
The few high-level items and points in the guild were carried by the Miao father and son, and were almost all looted by Bai Liu in the last round of the game.
The data and clearance references are for low-level players who want to play a familiar game again. However, Bai Liu, a psychopath who jumps to a higher level at a time, always plays the latest game. Even if the databases of all the guilds in the game were added together, he might not be able to find the reference data in them.
Mu Sicheng seemed to realize something. He turned around and looked at the ordinary players who were scrambling for the contract with excited faces.
——There is nothing left in this scavenger guild. Bai Liu had long since emptied it into an empty shell. The most valuable things inside now are the remaining ordinary players.
In other words, Bai Liu just divided an empty shell into several thousand pieces and sold them to these players, and made these players think that they had become the owners of the empty shell.
Under such circumstances, these low-level players will definitely work harder in the game to develop "their" empty-shell guild and fill it with things. Then, no matter whether these people's souls will be sold to Bai Liu as agreed later, Bai Liu will not suffer any loss at all.
Because what he was selling was actually an air bomb. It looked scary when it exploded, but there was nothing useful inside.
These people would desperately fill up the air shells that Bai Liu sold them, and then return them to Bai Liu, and they would be grateful to Bai Liu...
This is simply a plan to squeeze out the last bit of productivity of these lifeless bottom-level players!
Is this guy still a human being? This is a complete lie!
Mu Sicheng tried to hold back, but couldn't help turning to the calm Mu Ke and saying, "It's really too cruel of you to do this!"
As a solo player for a long time, Mu Sicheng has suffered a lot, but he has a young and energetic empathy for those low-level players who have been squeezed to despair.
After all, these people are likely to be his future when he was unable to go solo - being forced to join the guild and then squeezed until the last bit of value is lost.
"If we don't do this, these people will die soon." When facing this kind of transaction, the young master Mu Ke seemed to have a calm aura that came from experience. He pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose, glanced at Mu Sicheng indifferently, and said in a habitual tone, "What do you think is trapping them?"
"Many of my father's employees are just like these people. They would rather die than leave the factory. Some of them really don't have the ability to leave, while others are afraid that they will not be able to survive after leaving their jobs."
"They will try their best to prevent others or machines from replacing themselves and hinder the modernization of the entire factory. But in the end, when the factory is rapidly rebuilt, the mechanical technology revolution comes, or an economic crisis comes, these people who stay in their original positions will be the first to be eliminated."
Mu Ke retracted his gaze: "But if we give each employee a share dividend and give them a completely new factory, do you know what will happen?"
"What will happen?" Mu Sicheng asked.
"...Everyone in that factory worked very hard to develop the factory so that they and everyone else could survive." Mu Ke lowered his eyelids and said softly, "No matter how cruel the environment was, not a single employee left the factory until the very end."
Mu Sicheng stared blankly at the hall where the contract signing was in full swing.
On the countless stacked and raised system panels in the crowd, he saw the two words "Bai Liu" on the contract reflected in the dim eyes of these people, and then they reverently wrote their own names in the antithetical place.
The faint blue screen light in the eyes is like the faith resurrected from the ashes.
——————————
Small dark room area.
In front of Bai Liu's small TV, the two groups of people were facing each other silently.
The edge of the small TV was filled with the strong and tall senior members of the King's Guild. Their average height was basically a head shorter than the low-level players of the Scavengers' Guild, so they were looking down from a high position. Coupled with their arrogant and furious expressions, and their constant weird snorting, the feeling of oppression was very strong.
The players from the Scavenger Guild standing behind Mu Sicheng and Mu Ke couldn't help but retreat - they had never seen such a fight before!
The most outrageous thing many players had done before was to follow Miao Feichi in besieging Bai Liu. Their ultimate dream was to join the King's Guild, but now they were fast forward to fighting with the King's Guild, and they were almost about to collapse and scream in their hearts.
You guys are so brave! Can you take it easy? We just got the management rights of the guild, you can't bring this guild down!
"Before he fell into the grave and was dancing, I thought no one would come to collect Bai Liu's body. No one came." A man standing at the edge crossed his arms and sneered, "Now that he is in the small dark room, he has come over. Is it meaningful?"
"Why is it meaningless?" Mu Ke said slowly, his eyelids raised, "We can't save Bai Liu by dancing on the grave, but we can save Bai Liu in the small dark room."
This was Mu Ke's plan. After carefully understanding and sorting out the promotion position data of most players, he quickly calculated and integrated it in his mind, and found Bai Liu's possible ranking position from the thousands of divisions in the game - that is, this small black room.
The small dark room is actually a very unpopular area. Most people only know about it. Those who really know how to fall down are basically dead.
Fortunately, Mu Ke's brain worked quickly, and he had memorized most of the routes and areas in the game when he entered the game before. Mu Ke basically had an impression of the thousands of areas in the game, so he was able to find this unpopular area so quickly.
The rule of the [Graveside Disco Area] is that the data must exceed the previous time, which is impossible to achieve under the siege.
Because Bai Liu's data was so good last time, he had already reached the tail end of the King's List. Such a large number of likes, collections, and charging data could not be obtained by the power of the Scavenger Guild alone. Mu Ke was very clear-headed and calmly knew that when he only had the Scavenger Guild as a card in his hand, it was a pipe dream to pick Bai Liu out of this division.
But before completely falling into the [No Man's Land], the [Small Black Room Area] is where the system sets up a [ransom] mechanism in order to squeeze out the last bit of value from each player - that is, in this area, the last player who might charge the small TV to save you is squeezed.
So usually this recharge amount is not abnormally high. It is calculated by the system and is the amount of points that this person's supporters can possibly accumulate.
For example, Bai Liu's [Redemption] is 100,000 points - this amount of points is basically exactly equal to the points of Mu Ke, Mu, Si Cheng and other people, plus all the ordinary players in the entire Scavenger Guild added together.
But the only dilemma now is that Mu Ke looked up at the members of the King's Guild standing in front of them.
To charge, one must at least be able to rush into Bai Liu's small TV area. Now, the human wall built by the King's Guild on the edge of Bai Liu's small TV viewing area is tightly guarded, except for a hole that was just broken by Mu Sicheng's collision. Now this hole has been "healed" and no seam can be seen.
It is unlikely that the players behind him can rush in on their own, so they can only try to tear a breakthrough from the inside.
As long as a small hole is torn from inside, these cowardly guild players will be encouraged and dare to follow them to take risks and recharge Bai Liu.
Mu Ke took a deep breath, turned his hands outward at the wrists, and swung them cleanly. A pair of shiny black daggers appeared in the palms of his fair hands.
When the guarding member of the King's Guild saw the dagger appear, he wanted to take a step back cautiously, but he quickly realized that this was a game hall and the damage skills of this kind of dagger-like attack props were ineffective.
He curled his lips in disdain and laughed at Mu Ke by relying on his height: "Kid, understand the rules of the game before showing off your skills. How can you, with only a dagger,... " use skills in the game hall?
The expression on Mu Ke's face remained unchanged. He raised the dagger and rushed forward, stepping over the member of the King's Guild like a ghost, and entered the encirclement amid the other party's stunned expression and the abrupt end of his speech.
[System prompt: Player Mu Ke uses skill (flash attack)]
"Who said you have to attack when you use a knife?" Mu Ke raised his eyebrows coquettishly. He stood back to back with the member, turned around without hesitation, elbowed him, and pushed him with gritted teeth, "This is a skill that reduces the spirit value without any damaging function!"
He just used it to move around.
The encirclement was suddenly broken.
